Audio Review
I knew this one was going to be disappointing coming into it, and to be honest the audio was better than the eBook.
I think part of the problem is the timeline is off kilter for this one, and it is really noticeable when listening to them one after the other. This one should have been straight after At Peace, and if it was written then maybe we would have still had the feisty Frankie.
Frankie in At Peace was fabulous, and Benny was a jerk. I was dying to see how he made it up to her. Unfortunately there was not a lot of apologizing going on. The only one who actually tried to apologize was Manny. Everyone else was ok for Frankie to just give them a hug and move on. That's not good enough. They made her life hell for 7 years, until it got to the point of her wanting to move away, and then she saved Vi and all of a sudden she's gold. Benny himself did not do enough to make up for the bad way he treated her.
If you ignore all that happened in At peace and just take this one as is, it's not a bad read. I wish Frankie wasn't such a walk over but she is what she is.
